They can be compiled and run on just about anything, without worrying about external dependencies. They can be referenced and re-used in other projects, without forcing the developer to adhere to one particular approach to coding.
Sadly, a lot of modern tutorials don't go into how to reference other libraries, or how to wrap your head around different approaches. Some decent tutorials on how Tilengine works would be a good thing to labor at. But it would also be helpful to have a few tutorials that detail some of the fundamentals of game engines using modern programming structure, and how Tilengine could effectively be tied into those.
Yes, that's what I'm discovering the more things finally click into place in my mind. Programming is a lot like building blocks, once you know all the pieces you can build with it becomes easier to build what you need from your mind. Again, I will say I would love more tutorials, it sounds like you have some great ideas for some, I look forward to reading them if you get around to writing them.
Cheers!
